    摘要: An encoding device enables the amount of processing operations to be significantly reduced while minimizing deterioration in the quality of an output signal. This encoding device (101) encodes an input signal by determining the correlation between a first signal generated by using the input signal and a second signal generated by a predetermined method. An importance assessment unit (202) sets the importance of each of a plurality of processing units obtained by dividing the frames of the input signal. A CELP coder (203) performs sparse processing in which the amplitude value of a predetermined number of samples among multiple samples constituted by the first signal and/or the second signal in each processing unit is set to zero according to the importance that was set for each processing unit, and calculates the correlation between the first signal and the second signal, either of which was subjected to sparse processing.

    摘要: A decoding device reduces abrupt changes in the number of channels in a decoded signal when transmission errors occur as a result of lost frames in an encoding/decoding system for multichannel signals. In the device, a demultiplexer receives an encoded monaural signal and an encoded differential signal and detects change over time in the received encoded differential signal. An M signal decoder decodes the encoded monaural signal and obtains a decoded monaural signal. An S signal decoder decodes the encoded differential signal and obtains a decoded differential signal. A smoothing unit performs smoothing on the decoded differential signal by means of a computation involving the decoded differential signal and coefficients corresponding to the change over time detected by the demultiplexer. An L/R signal computation unit computes a decoded stereo signal from the decoded monaural signal and the smoothed decoded differential signal.

    摘要: Disclosed are an encoding device and encoding method capable of improving the quality of a decoded signal under very low bit rate conditions using a small amount of computation. A spectrum correction unit (302) performs correction processing on the subspectrum in each subband in such a manner that samples equal to or greater than a subspectrum average value are left unchanged while samples smaller than the subspectrum average value are replaced by zero. As a result of this, it is possible to significantly reduce the number of bits required to quantize the subspectrums without substantial reduction in quality in a local search unit (303) and in a multi-rate indexing unit (304).

    摘要: An encoding device reduces the encoding distortion as compared to the conventional technique and obtains a preferable sound quality for auditory sense. In the encoding device, a shape quantization unit quantizes the shape of an input spectrum with a small number of pulse positions and polarities. The shape quantization unit sets a pulse amplitude width to be searched later upon search of the pulse position to a value not greater than the pulse amplitude width which has been searched previously. A gain quantization unit calculates a gain of a pulse searched by the shape quantization unit for each of bands.
